Behaviors of alloying element titanium in vanadium: From energetics to tensile/shear deformation

Ab initio calculations of elastic properties of alloys with mechanical instability: Application to BCC Ti-V alloys

“…In addition, Ti-V alloys have a very narrow range of crystallization [7][8][9]. Moreover, it is known that vanadiumrich alloys with Ti additions combine low temperature strength and high ductility with high strength at elevated temperature and low creep [10]. An interest in the properties of β-titanium alloys has further increased in view of their application to create elements of designs by using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) technology [11].…”
